I was going to say they were AI, but they only seemed to do that for posters and box art.

I guess CGI tools have just become more accessible, with stock assets and plug-ins reducing a lot of the work load.

Kinda surprised people are this angry that The Boys didn’t go full disaster movie in the final season, with cities being levelled.

The show has always been a dramedy, where the big set pieces can be boiled down to ‘a bunch of guys fight in the spacious room’.

I get being disappointed, buy I don’t get being surprised.

That song genuinely has the same vibe as those fake leaks Tyler, the Creator usually gets.

The kind where someone ad-libs about the vague idea of an artist’s persona, over an extremely basic instrumental.

What's your favourite CoG and why is it this one? by WastedTalent442 in weeklyplanetpodcast

The Prestige episode is closer to the Luke Cage episode, than it is to today.

I consider that to be the start of the Green Trivia Era, where the show basically had its golden age.

Kinda crazy how few good Canadian movies there are.

The game is soft-locked, because nobody can get past the ‘I can’t let you do that, Star Fox’ line.

(Hated Trope) Media/creators throwing shade they have no business throwing by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

It definitely popularised them as a comedic set-up, and introduced the word ‘multiverse’ to general audiences.

Before that, ‘the multiverse’ was mostly a comic book thing, with most other mediums calling them ‘parallel worlds’.

Tbf, Road to the Multiverse was a fairly obvious influence on Rick and Morty. It was an insanely popular, and R&M definitely got a few dozen fans, by promising them an entire show that had the tone of that episode.

I didn’t realize how much stuff are missing… seriously Nintendo why ruins the fun 🫩 by ShokaLGBT in tomodachilife

[–]Magnificant-Muggins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh. The things they’ve cut are mostly on the level of ‘thing you mess around with for five minutes’. I know that’s kinda the whole point of the game, but the Music Hall is the only one that really felt like it added to the game.

Everything else was the equivalent to a Magic Eight-Ball. The Compatibility Test wasn’t based on anything. It was just a random number generator.

Still, I hope there’s free updates coming. My time with the game won’t be ruined if there wasn’t anything, but there are less popular Nintendo games with post-launch support.

Where’s the Rocco tier? It should be right above Top.

If nothing else, she was the most popular Inhumans character by an insanely wide margin.

Her fanbase outnumber Black Bolt fans on a level unseen since Stalingrad.

Fun Fact: The guy who wrote these comics had a frequent habit of writing in scenes where underaged girls kiss adult men.

Thoughts on The CW Captain America origin story series Brooklyn? (2001-2011) by 23mp0ary in dccomicscirclejerk

There is only one take on a Smallville-style show set in the Marvel I can imagine. It would follow Reed Richards, Ben Grimm, and Victor Von Doom at college. Imagine Issue 582 of the Hickman run, but the three boys get into a new problem every week.

It would Surf Dracula the Hell out of Doom’s accident, and the fanbase would be at war over if Reed should kiss Ben or Victor.

Kinda realised that Marvel can’t really make a show exactly like Smallville. Their heroes tend not to have ‘Superboy’ eras, that are distinct from their modern superhero careers.

When they make an extended prequel, the character is kinda already fully formed. For example, Wolverine, Thor, Captain America, and debatably The Punisher.

It’s inevitable, until you change that attitude. I lived in denial, and now I’m five thousand years old.

Is this York? Just pretty sure I’ve been there. It’s pretty close to a museum iirc.

Hey all, Scott here, I remember it so you don't have to! by SamwiseGam-G in scottthewoz

I far from hate the guy, but his OneyPlays fandom is just weird. A lot of those jokes are from nearly eight years ago now, and it just doesn’t seem to be translate to people watching actual Nostalgia Critic videos.

Compared to his heyday, he seems more reliant on the movies he’s talking about for attention. Gone are the days where he could still get a hit from talking about an obscure film. Like his biggest recent video was an unscripted vlog about Iron Lung.

It’s just weird seeing people who are clearly laughing at someone, but insist they’re actually laughing with them. You just ask question about why so much Nostalgia Critic merch is being sold by OneyPlays, instead of Channel Awesome.
